 Hypothetical that Danny Lands the big fish DMC. Give me a realistic PF not on our roster now, either in the draft, FA, or someone we could trade for that could play his role perfectly. I think Looney might work. Hopefully he will be a stretch four that can rebound and defend his position.

The Celtics are not going to land DeMarcus anytime soon.  I'm tired of this hypothetical.

It makes no sense for the Kings to bail on the only thing keeping them at all relevant while they are building a new arena in Sacramento.  It just won't happen.  Give it up.

So maybe I should post a thread about which players we should target to put around Kevin Durant when we trade for him this summer?

Anything is possible, right?

Or how about the ideal center and wing to put next to Anthony Davis?



As for which player I think the KINGS ought to put next to DeMarcus . . .

They need a floor stretcher, especially with Gay on the wing.  I thought Patrick Patterson could have worked for them if they had held onto him.  Ryan Anderson might work if they could keep him healthy.

Ersan Ilyasova is a guy who should be available who could work next to Cousins, I think. 

Perhaps we can entice them to trade their lottery pick if we send them Olynyk or Sullinger along with a couple of other assets.

If the Kings did want to trade Cousins, there would be a bunch of teams that would try to get him.  I don't think we have nearly enough assets to win that competition.  We weren't even competitive trying to trade for Love.

Very good point.

Any team with a top 5 pick in this draft could come along and trump our offer.

Quality beats quantity when it comes to trading for stars.

Hypothetically speaking, if Boston lands Demarcus Cousins... what will your final two wishes be for the Leprechaun you've managed to capture?

Paul Millsap, with Brandon Bass on the second unit.

Could you have predicted KG coming to Boston?  People can be way too negative sometimes.  Yes, I do believe anything is possible.  Nobody is calling a Durant magic wand.  The reason DC is possible is because of the circumstances and things he has voiced himself.
